water line length, SO feet; beam abomt 30
feet; draught 10 feet. The length
on deck from the foreside of the stem to
the afterside of the sternpost is about nine
tY-tive feet, or five feet shorter than the
Thistle between the same points. The new
steel yacht will have an Overhanging bow
and it will rake forward about six feet.
Her overhanging stern will not be over
sixteen feet. With the exception of
the overhanging bow the dimensions
are practically about the same as the May
flower. The shape of her midship is not
known. but it is certain that it Will be more
powerful than the Mayfiower's or the Puri-
tan's and with more bilge. The greatest
advantage that the new Sloop will have
over the Mayhower will be the lower
ing of all her weights. Her load will
be run into trough which will form
the bottom of the keel and will be inside.
The space which on the Mayfower is taken
up by the large oak keel on the new boat
will be filled up with lead and all the weight
consequently will be lowered. This low
ering of weight will make her more pow
erful than the MaytlOwer and she will have
more stability. Mr.. Burgess left for Will
mington, Del. on Friday with the complete
drawings of the new yacht.

Irish Jack is brindle bull-terrier from
Ajax, a famous dog owned at Chicago, and
Fay, owned at Big Lake, MINI. He is 2
years old, and has never had pit fight.
His hackers are confident that he
is the winner. and there will be
good bit of money upon the result. He
is now being trained by Charles Stewart of
Chicago. His daily exercise consists of
road running. with work on the wheel. He
is made to run at three minute clip sew
eral times during the day to strengthen
his wind His jaw exercise consists
in letting him catch hold of strong rag at
tached to a rope. By means of pulley he
is lifted from the floor and allowed to hang
until he lets go. Jumbo's training consists
mainly OF road work and similar
exercise. Both dogs are care
fully dieted, and every detail of their
condition is looked after as carefully as
though they were pugilsts. The fight will
be scratch and turn" and will consist
probably of seven or eight one-minute
rounds. Both dogs are to weigh under
fortysix pounds. On the same occasion
there are to be two other battles between
the sisters Judy and Posa, and Tinker and
Brandy, all four of which are thoroughbred
bull terriers.

heavy cold, accompanied by remittent fever
and was quite sick, but tonight has fav-
orable pulse" Col Coppinger repeated
that Mr.. Blaine was quite sick. The whole

Them.

Manager Barnes Brings His Men
Home From Usage. and is Proud of
Them.
The st. Paul league base ball team ar
rived from Usage, Ia, yesterday, and prac-
ticed for the first time on the new grounds
in West ST. Paul. All the men are in the
field except Viau, the new pitcher, who is
expected to arrive on the 18th. He is at
present playing series of college games
with the Dartmouth college nine John
Pickett, who plays first base, will be cap
tain of the nine. Pickett is first-class
general, cool-headed and reliable, and made
a good record with the Milwaukee and
Minneapolis clubs last season. Manager
Barnes delayed in selecting his captain
until he had become thoroughly acquainted
with the merits of his men. and
there is no reason to doubt his good
judgment in the choice. The new grounds
in West st. Paul make a good appearance.
and when leyeled by the steam rollers,
which will be done at once, they will be
second to none. The grand stand has been
completed, and the seating capacity will be
5000. The club will play three games with
the Detrots in st. Paul. on April 10, 21 and
25. and will open the regular league season
in DeS MOineS on April 30. Regarding the
J. j. Ahern challenge to play picked
nine, Manager Barnes said:
We cannot make it next Monday, because
the grounds will NOT be entirely ready, but
will play him one week from Monday, and he
can choose any battery he wants from my nine,
with the exception of Sowders. would not
let him have Sowders because our men can't
bat his pitching. I will give him the choice
of Duryea and Stockwell, or Macauley and
Prescott, and take the two he doesn't want.
Mr.. Barnes has a high opinion of the
strength of his nine. Said he:
am satisfied have the heaviest batting
team in the league. Every one ofmy players
Is a hard hitter 1 think Viau is the best
pitcher in the league outside of Sowders, and
Macauley, the other new pitcher, is also a
trem endous batter.
Mr.. Barnes got S., 900 in cash for the in,
terest in the club which he sold to A. NJ.
Thompson, and is well satisfied with the
bargain, although he says there's mint
of money in the club this year." Having
disposed of all financial responsibility, Mr..
Barnes will be able to give his whole time
personally to the management of the club
There is every reason to hope that the st.
Paul nine will win the pennant for 1887.
